abstract = {Polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) are a promising
energy conversion technology thatgenerates electricity from
hydrogen with low noise, and less or zero emission
properties.Phenomena during the fuel cell operation are
complex, which are caused by many interrelatedfactors. In
addition, the dynamic behaviors of the fuel cells will
change due to differentoperating conditions and load
changes. A fast response model that can predict the
PEFCsdynamic behavior is helpful to implement optimal
control to the fuel cell systems obtaining adesired
performance.The aim of the thesis is to developing,
analyzing and modifying a fuel cell dynamic model,in which a
least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) is employed.
The efficiency of theLSSVM model is first demonstrated in
comparison to experimental data collected from a fuelcell
test rig. Analyzing the model’s performance under various
fuel cell load changes is carriedout with the help of
experimental data collected from our test rig and artificial
data generatedby a white-box model that based on the
mechanism of the fuel cell systems. Two types ofartificial
data are generated: one is idealized artificial data with
determined cell voltage andanother one is oscillated
artificial data that includes the oscillation on the cell
voltage.Various load changes, namely current density
changes, are considered in the analysis, andare represented
by a combination of two factors called as ramp time and ramp
value. Ramp timeis used to show how fast the load is changed
and ramp value is used to describe the range ofload change.
In addition, considering the data-driven nature of the LSSVM
method, samplinginterval of the test rig that determines the
frequency of data collection is considered. It is foundthat
the performance of the LSSVM model is better when smoother
load changes are imposedon the system, so large ramp time
and small ramp value are preferable in order to achieve
goodmodel accuracy. Moreover, to modeling a high dynamic
fuel cell system, a high frequencysampling is suggested to
reach a desirable model performance.The thesis defines a
working zone for the LSSVM model when predicting the
PEFCsdynamic response to sudden load change. Based on the
acceptable error to the modeling, a setof workable
combinations of sampling interval, ramp time and ramp value
can be found. Theworking zone helps to instruct the future
application of the LSSVM model when differentoperating load
changes are applied.Last but not the least, the LSSVM model
is modified in order to improve its modelingperformance when
predicting the dynamic behavior of the fuel cell. An online
adaptive LSSVMmodel is developed. Determination of initial
value of the internal parameters to the LSSVMmodel is
optimized by employing a genetic algorithm to search global
optimum instead ofmanual search. An adaptive process is
carried out to update these internal parameters online.With
a suitable starting point of the internal parameters and
online updating processes, thisonline adaptive LSSVM model
can well deal with complex nonlinear fuel cell systems
